“…Prolific is an online platform connecting those needing tasks completed with those willing to complete those tasks. Prior studies have supported the validity of results obtained via Prolific when taking certain precautions (Kim et al, 2022;Palan and Schitter, 2018;Stanton et al, 2022), which were taken in the current article. We removed all participants that failed more than one of seven attention checks (e.g.…”

“…We utilized an online data collection platform to obtain our participant responses. While we applied modern best practice in utilizing these types of sources (Kim et al, 2022; Palan and Schitter, 2018; Stanton et al, 2022), our sample may be overly representative of certain types of participants more likely to use these platforms. Authors have suggested that those with higher a higher socioeconomic status and education may be more likely to be recruited from these platforms.…”

The study of behavioral inhibition system (BIS) and behavioral activation system (BAS) sensitivities has produced a multitude of models and frameworks to better understand decision-making and behavior. We extend this research to the study of a vaccination by exploring the relation of BIS and BAS sensitivities with vaccination willingness, receipt, and word-of-mouth. We also assess whether dimensions of vaccine hesitancy mediate these relations, testing whether they are viable explanatory mechanisms. By conducting a multi-wave survey study, our results support that BIS sensitivity does not meaningfully relate to vaccine hesitancy or vaccination outcomes. On the other hand, BAS sensitivity related to detrimental vaccination outcomes, and these effects were mediated by vaccine hesitancy dimensions associated with perceptions that vaccines cause health risks and are not needed for healthy individuals. Based on extant BIS and BAS theory, these results suggest that certain people may see refraining from vaccination as a nonpunishment.
